debug enabling

2007-01-06 Thread Alan Chandler
I am trying to debug the media ioslave and have attempted to enable 
debug by adding a small section in the /etc/kde3/debugrc file like this

#media ioslave
[1219]
InfoOutput=0
InfoFilename=/home/alan/kiomedia.log

But I don't seem to even get an empty file of the name specified.

Does Debian have the ability to get debug out like this.  If so, can 
someone suggest what I might be doing wrong

Korganizer annoying problem

2007-01-06 Thread Ritesh Raj Sarraf
Hi,

I'm having a very frustrating problem with, I believe, Korganizer.

I'm running the KDE PIM suite at version: 3.5.5.dfsg.1-4 with the exception of
Kontact which is at version: 3.5.4-1+b1 because of the annoying crashing
problem.

I've noticed this problem starting to happen from 2 days (IIRC some KDE
applications were upgraded recently).

I have Korganizer configured to access data from an IMAP resource. I noticed
that now when I do a Mail Check, the check becomes a very very large data
transfer. This specifically happens at: Uploading Calendar to the server.

I'm sure this must be a KDE PIM bug and not my IMAP Server bug (dovecot).

Is anybody else seeing similar issues ?

Ritesh

All of your points exactly match mine now that I have corrected the 
problem of a missing background file.  I suspect that kdm is restarting 
X or something when a session ends and it can't find the backgound.

See debian bug report #405792

Debian artwork have been moved to the desktop-base package.

I also use i810 and see this behaviour only when trying to restart the X 
server from within X. Going to a VT first and running "/etc/init.d/kdm 
restart" works, though. However, shutting down from within X works.

I also use the framebuffer to get a nice VT and I actually blame the crappy 
video output situation under linux for this.
Try without framebuffer, without DRI and without XVMC support and maybe that 
fixes it.

Re: kdm background - where?

2007-01-06 Thread Ryo Furue
Hi,

| Over the past few days, my kdm background (a sort of swirl of blue) 
| has dissappeared.  Instead I have a solid mid blue background.
| 
| my /etc/kde3/kdm/backgroundrc file refers to 
|

| 
| but searching my complete hard drive for such a filename fails to

I use the testing distribution of Debian, both at work and at home.
It seems that debian-kde_default.png is basically included in the
kdebase-data package, but version 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-2, which I use
at work does have it, but version 4:3.5.5a.dfsg.1-5, which I use
at home does not.  That means that the latest upgrade (yesterday or
the day before yesterday) eliminated it.

Today when I switched on my home machine, I noticed that the login
background has changed.

By the way, the file is /usr/share/wallpapers/debian-kde_default.png
in my work machine.  If you need it, I could send it to you.
(But, I might upgrade my work machine soon, losing the file.
 So hurry up if you want to ask :-)

Regards,
Ryo

I know what happened now.  I store my config in git and did a git -reset 
just recently.  I think it wiped away an update to the config done my 
debian.

kdm background - where?

2007-01-06 Thread Alan Chandler
Over the past few days, my kdm background (a sort of swirl of blue) has 
dissappeared.  Instead I have a solid mid blue background.

my /etc/kde3/kdm/backgroundrc file refers to 

Wallpaper=debian-kde_default.png

but searching my complete hard drive for such a filename fails to find 
it.

I am keen to understand where it should be located and replace it (what 
package should it be in?), because I have had a new fault for a few 
days.  When I end my current session, instead of seeing kdm's login 
screen I just have a completely blue background.  Even worse than that 
Ctrl-Alt-F1 does not bring up the console but a blank grey screen

The only way to do anything is to ctrl-alt-backspace followed by 
ctrl-alt-del which reboots the machine

I suspect some combination of xorg-xserver and my i810 video not 
working, but before submitting a bug report I just want to rule out a 
kdm problem.

Can someone explain to me where I should find this background file and 
what package it should be in, so I can restore it.

Thanks
